Skimming - Skimming is sometimes referred to as gist reading where you’re trying to glance over the material to grasp the main idea. The way you do this is to read the first and last paragraph and check for any dark headings. Skimming may help in order to know what the text is about at its most basic level. You might typically do this with a magazine or newspaper and would help you mentally and quickly shortlist those articles which you might consider for a deeper read. You might typically skim to search for a name in a telephone directory.
